Democratic Governors Rally Behind President Biden’s Reelection Campaign

In a show of unity and unwavering support, over 20 Democratic governors gathered at the White House for a crucial meeting with President Joe Biden. California Governor Gavin Newsom, echoing the sentiment of the group, emphasized Biden’s resolute commitment to his presidential campaign, stating, “I heard three words from the President – he’s all in. And so am I. Joe Biden’s had our back. Now it’s time to have his.”

The meeting, which included prominent figures like New York Governor Kathy Hochul and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, aimed to strategize on the path forward for Biden’s reelection bid. Hochul underlined the critical stakes, asserting, “With former President Donald Trump in the Oval Office, the U.S. risks descending back into monarchy and tyranny. We will stand with the President as he fights that force.”

Maryland Governor Wes Moore described the meeting as candid, where governors discussed public feedback following Biden’s recent debate performance. Moore expressed confidence in overcoming current challenges, stating, “We know the path to victory in November is real, and it’s going to take all of us.”

Governor Walz, also Chair of the Democratic Governors Association, reiterated their collective support for Biden, emphasizing their shared priority of securing victory in the upcoming election.

The gathering highlighted a united front among Democratic governors, pledging their support to ensure Biden’s success against Donald Trump in November. Following the meeting, a statement from the Biden campaign underscored the president’s determination to defeat Trump and the importance of electing Democrats across all levels of government.

This assembly of Democratic leaders not only reaffirms their backing for Biden but also signals a coordinated effort to strengthen Democratic representation nationwide.
